Crop Host Influences on Outcomes of Competition Between Aspergillus Section Flavi Species Coinfecting Maize and Groundnuts

Crop Host Influences on Outcomes of Competition Between Aspergillus Section Flavi Species Coinfecting Maize and Groundnuts

Aspergillus section Flavi species co-occur and contaminate crops, including maize and groundnuts, with aflatoxins. Competition among A. flavus genotypes is influenced by crop host, but competition between Aspergillus species has not been examined. The objectives of the current study were to (i) asse...
